Southside Johnny - Coming Back Lyrics

I still remember, baby
Those wild, desperate times
Making love in crazy places
While the town around us died

I played on broken stages
I watched the lonely cry
You danced in iron cages
For the boys with hungry eyes
All those wasted lives

Little by little, baby
We were going down
I swore I'd come back for you
Come back and buy this town

I'm coming back
Back for what's mine
I ain't gonna let nobody
Stop me this time

No more running, baby
I paid for my crime
I'm coming back, baby
Back for what's mine

You were standing at the station
That rainy night I left
You looked so fine, baby
I couldn't catch my breath

Once I started running
I never asked the cost
Too many years and miles
To find out what I'd lost
Some things can't be bought

Everybody's colder now
It's everywhere I go
I'm getting tired of living
In a world that's got no soul

I'm coming back
Back for what's mine
I ain't gonna let nobody
Stop me this time

No more running, baby
I paid for my crime
I'm coming back, baby
Back for what's mine

Oh, yeah
I got to get back home

I don't want to confuse you
If you found something else
But I don't want to lose you
Just when I found myself

Everybody's colder now
Let's everywhere I go
I just don't want to live
In a world that's got no soul

I'm coming back
Back for what's mine
I ain't gonna let nobody
Stop me this time

No more running, baby
I paid for my crime
I'm coming back, baby
Back for what's mine

Now I'm coming, baby
I'm coming, baby
You know, I'm coming home, baby
I'm coming back home

I'm coming, baby
Oh, I'm coming, baby
I'm coming, baby
I got to get back home

Hold on, baby
I got to get back home
I'm on my way darling
I got to get back home
